Accessible Education
Accessible Education provides supports and services to students with disabilities at Western, in all programs and faculties.

Accessible Education
Accessible Education plays a central role in Western's efforts to ensure that its academic programs are accessible for all students at the graduate and undergraduate levels. We arrange academic accommodation for classes, exams, internships and other course or program activities, as well as provide digital and Braille textbooks, accessible campus transportation, learning strategy instruction for students with learning disabilities, access to computer labs that are equipped with assistive technology, referrals for assessments and other services, and bursaries for students who meet OSAP's eligibility criteria.
Depending on the service you require, appointments will be delivered via phone, email or virtually. For general inquiries, we will be checking and responding to email during office hours, which are Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm. To book an appointment with Accessible Education, please email aew@uwo.ca.
